Gushimisha · 4 verses

1.

Nimuze, ngabo za Yesu,(Come forth, soldiers of Jesus,)

Tujye mu ntambara!(Let us go to battle!)

Mwarobanuwe n’Umwami:(Called by the Lord Himself:)

Mwese, mwiyereke !(Everyone, arise!)

Umugab’ araje:(The enemy approaches:)

Impanda bazivugije:(They beat the war drums:)

Nimuze, mwitabe!(Come, join the fight!)

2.

Dor’ umugab’ uzigabye(Behold, the enemy we fight)

Ni Yesu Krisito(Is Jesus Christ)

Yanesheje wa mwanzi we(Who defeated His adversary)

kubg’ umusaraba(Upon the cross)

Ndetse,(Moreover,)

n’ intwaro ze(His weapons too)

Yarazimwambuye(He stripped away)

Twashobora kuneshwa se,(Can we be defeated then,)

Yes’ aturwanira ?(When Jesus fights for us?)

3.

Mwiyumanganye mu byago(Stand firm amid dangers)

Mugiye kubona(You are about to see)

Murind’ imitima yanyu,(Guard well your hearts,)

Itagwa mu gico(Lest they fall to temptation)

Intwari y’ Umwami(The Lord's brave warrior)

Ntiyita ku by’isi(Cares not for earthly things)

Ni kw ijy’ imera ngw ibone(But for the age to come, to witness)

Kunesha Satani(Satan's defeat)

4.

Mutwar’ intwaro z’ Umwuka,(Take up the Spirit's weapons,)

Ni zo zimukwiriye(These are what you need)

Inkot’ ityay’ iboneye(The fearsome mighty club)

N’ ijambo ry’ Imana(And the Word of God)

Muryemere mwese;(Believe it, all of you;)

Ni ryo ribakiza(It is your salvation)

Muryizere mu mitima,(Trust it in your hearts,)

Ni ho muzatsinda(There you will conquer)
